卵 Eggs

私はたいてい卵をファーマーズマーケットで買います。だから、１パックに入っている卵のサイズはまちまちで色も違います。今週買った卵の中にこんな大きな卵が２つ！１個が９０グラムもありました。隣の卵の1.5倍の重さです。去年の鶏インフルエンザ以来アメリカの卵の値段が少し高い気がします。カリフォルニアでは１２個入り１パックが３ドル(340円）位。日本では１０個入り１パックが198円位。全般的に食料品の値段が安い中、卵だけは日本が安いかな。
I usually buy eggs at farmer's market, therefore a pack of eggs comes in different sizes and colors.  These two BIG eggs came in a pack I purchased this week.  Each of there weighed 90 grams (3.15oz) which was about 1.5 times bigger than the eggs next to them.  I noticed the price of eggs in USA went higher last year due to the bird flu and it doesn't seem to come down much ever since.  A dozen of eggs in California costs about three dollars whereas a pack (10 eggs) of eggs costs 198 yen ($1.74) in Japan.  Generally, the price of food is much lower in USA, but when it comes to the price of eggs, it seems cheaper in Japan.
